Chef cooks endangered fish live on Austrian TV and causes uproar. The animal was cooked live by a guest restaurateur to host the program.

Alerted by spectators aware of the legislation, public television apologized live a few days later. “He has a stomach ache because of this story which is preventing him from sleeping,” said his restaurateur friend. Its supplier believed that the species in question, the gallant roach, protected year-round since 2002 due to its vulnerability to rising freshwater temperatures.
